In his first outing after he was exposed for racist and homophobic tweets, Milwaukee Brewers’ pitcher, Josh Hader, now known as Josh Hater, received a standing ovation from his home crowd.

The special report titled Black and White Inequality in All 50 States considered 10 separate social and economic measures that tend to be unequal along racial lines. 24/7 Wall St. reviewed and ranked all 50 U.S. states based on inequality, from most to least equal.

The report said that the Wisconsin African American population is 6.2% (24th smallest) and that the median household income for African Americans is $29,223 less than half of the median household income for whites which was $59,056.

The report stated that the unemployment rate for black people in Wisconsin was 10.6 percent to 3.8 percent for white.
